Bill signed from Carnoustie Panmure. He played in Dundee Hibs first ever Scottish League match but was soon replaced and regarded as the reserve keeper. Always the understudy and unable to break into the first eleven he was transfer listed in April 1913.

Dundee Hibs were anxious to open their Second League programme with a win, and, although they lost to Leith Athletic by 3 goals to 2, the Hibs had no reason to feel ashamed of their performance. The spectators, of whom there was a large company, witnessed a rousing game. If Saturday's exhibition is a criterion of what is to be expected from the Tannadice Park team they should draw big crowds. There is merit in the Hibs' team. In some parts it is exceptionally good, but there are some weak spots to be remedied, and certainly greater attention to training is much to be desired. Before the game finished, several of the "wearers o' the green" were rather short of wind.
